Barbershopera Tickets

Barbershopera is a distinctive barbershop musical act that blends tight vocal harmonies with theatrical storytelling. Founded circa 2007 by Rob Castell and Tom Sadler while they were students at the University of East Anglia, the group began as a dynamic three-male plus one-female format that would redefine contemporary barbershop in musical theatre. Over the years, Barbershopera created three full shows, earned notable awards, and transferred to prominent London venues, making waves in both fringe and West End circuits.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the genre, Barbershopera offers a blend of clever humor, catchy harmonies, and inventive staging that resonates with audiences across the UK. We’ve got you covered for up-to-date information on their performances, recordings, and notable milestones.

Past highlights include adaptations and transfers that propelled Barbershopera from Edinburgh stages to Trafalgar Studios in London, as well as a BBC Radio 4 Afternoon Play adaptation of Barbershopera! in 2010. The group’s discography features two full albums, Apocalypse No! (2011) and Toni & the Guys (2012), released by Barbershopera Productions Ltd. Members Castell and Stubbs have earned international recognition, including Best Actor/Best Actress awards at the Daegu International Musical Festival in South Korea.
